ring-buffer: Fix NULL pointer if rb_set_head_page() fails The function rb_set_head_page() searches the list of ring buffer pages for a the page that has the HEAD page flag set. If it does not find it, it will do a WARN_ON(), disable the ring buffer and return NULL, as this should never happen. But if this bug happens to happen, not all callers of this function can handle a NULL pointer being returned from it. That needs to be fixed.
